Support
The API and site will always remain free at point of access. If you love our service and find this site useful you can sign up as a Patreon supporter for
$2 or more to get special features such as livescores. You can cancel anytime. This allows us to pay for the servers and bandwidth and develop new features.

API Keys
You can use the test API key "1" during development of your app or for educational use(see test links below)
However you must sign up on Patreon if you wish to have a production API key if releasing publicly on an appstore or web service.
The test key may be revoked at any time if abused.

Upgrade
All Patreon supporters have access to special features on the API and quicker livescore updates.
You also get personal support from us via email.
